Do any of you ladies have tips or tricks for getting through the "foggy brain" that happens with you're sleep deprived? That feeling like you're almost drunk. I love sleep and don't try to deprive myself of it any longer than necessary, but lately, with trying to bust my ass in all areas of life, sometimes I only get 3-4 hours of sleep or am up with minimal doze-napping for 36 hours at a time. The foggy brain thing scares me since I usually do have to drive a lot even when I'm like this. I don't remember dealing with this so badly when I was younger and constantly busy. I try to at least do yoga every morning to get my body moving and not eat terribly unhealthy, drink plenty of water, but it doesn't help a whole lot. I hate drifting through an entire 16+ hour day feeling intoxicated when it's just literally sleep deprivation.
I know a lot of you girls dance while also working a day job and/or going to school. Surely, there are some tips, or even supplements you've discovered, for pushing through a single tough evening before you can hit the hay for good.
And caffeine isn't really an option for me.At best, it does nothing to actually wake me up, and at worst, just makes me feel anxious and sick which is the last thing I need when I'm already not at full mental capacity.
